Abstract

The paper presents theoretical study of biomagnetic fluid (such as blood) flow through a tube under magnetic external field. In this work, we consider blood as a conducting and magnetic fluid that is Newtonian and incompressible. The motion of blood in a tube is described by Navier Stokes and continuity equations. The magnetic field effect on a limit region from the tube, where behavior of blood stream is changed. In dependence of the distance from the field localization, the concentration of magnetic cells of blood is changed, and their velocity shape is different from the original one (parabolic form).

This work is very important for many biomedical applications and bioengineering such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic drug delivery and targeting, magnetic separation and hyperthermic treatments.
